Try remove battery from phone. After back battery in phone. Press the button Home and Power together.
Wait a little and you will have CWM.
do you have adb installed on your pc ?
if yes , just connect your mobile to your pc using usb cable ,using terminal / cmd prompt navigate to adb folder and type
adb reboot recovery
if you don't have adb then google how to setup adb on windows/ubuntu whichever os you have

Yes I do have adb installed. Even I was thinking about doing the same but will adb recognize the device when its stuck on bootloader?
just give it a try dude
I think it will recognize your device

If it is not a hardware problem, Power should work with this method.
I have several times had a problem like yours and I solved it this way.

I've just tried to root my wifi only Xoom using the 1 click method, but didn't see there was a tab for wifi only & a 3G tab. I went through the options using the 3G options.
Now my Xoom's stuck at the red Motorola screen & won't go any further.
Are there any threads to reverse my balls up?? I've had a look but can't see anything
Please tell me I've not bricked it?!?
tell me why you posted this in the wrong section
I could tell you that it's not bricked...but then I might be lying.
Moved to Q&A. This is not development.
You will need to adb and flash recovery then flash the rom again.

Please let us poor souls know how you did it!!! I am stuck with the same problem - the screen freezes with the Motorola logo and the tablet wouldn't boot up!
For those still having issues, try going into fastboot and flashing the stock images.
You can access fastboot by restarting your xoom (power and vol up) and then once the red M comes up, tap the volume down key around a second later. You have a decent window of opportunity to press the key. This should take you to the bootloader. Once in there, use the volume down key to enter fastboot.
From fastboot you can either flash a custom recovery then from the recover install the BRD 3.1 rooted update, or you can just use the fastboot flash command to flash each partition back to stock.
Good luck.

Thanks . I have now installed custom recovery (ClockworkMod 3.0.2.8) but where do I get the rooted or stock ROM from? I suppose it has to be in a *.zip format.
i downloaded the matrix rom and i liked it but i wanted to go back to ice cream sandwhich for the day so when i tried to go to recovery it froze on the google screen while trying to get to recovery i kept trying and trying but my recovery wasnt working i couldnt get to it. so i went to titanium back up and clicked un-install all system and data because i thought it was when i restored all system and data from ICS but after i did the uninstall i kept getting a force close alot of things and i got all the way down to one and it was process.android i think and everytime i clicked force close it popped right bacj up instently. so i took out the battery and put it back in and now i cant power on my phone it gets stuck on the matrix screen. can you please help me i can only acces the volume up power button menu.
Boot into recovery, wipe data, cache, Dalvik cache, format /system and flash the ICS ROM of your choice.
If the ICS.zip file is not yet on your SDCard, you can mount it by going to 'mounts and storage' in CWM and selecting 'mount storage'. Then it'll be recognized by your computer and you can copy it over.
Good luck.

From your computer.. Do you have Android SDK?
Just navigate to the tools folder inside Android SDK, Then fastboot erase recovery. Put recovery inside the tools folder, then fastboot flash recovery.img (or whatever it's named)

Hello all,
i have a htc sensation 4G S-off.
i broked its display, and while repairing it broken the volume key cable. now volume key not working.
i installed PACman rom 1.2 and wifi was not working.
as directed in that thread of PACman i installed beta version sultan kernel.
now its not booting, just getting the HTC splash screen and then again going off.
i tried it to connect via PC but no success , neither adb, nor fastboot, recognzing it connected.
you can go to bootloader the traditional way atleast?
remove battery --reinsert it -> hold power + volume down ..until you get to bootloader
then connect to PC (if conncected properly thge phone says FASTBOOT USB)
then you can atleast use fastboot
in the mean time from the zip of the PAC MAN rom you've installed ..extract the boot.img and copy it to your fastboot/adb folder
then type this command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
then reboot using this command
fastboot reboot
and next time find the proper kernel and flash it (be careful this time )

I know issue have been solved with help of ganeshp but to help other people there's a quite more simple way, htc sensation 4g tool, it also let u unlock bootloader in 4 clicks and flash new recovery but it also let u boot into bootloader and boot into recovery in one click: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497404

i tried 2-3 tools available for sensation before posting here, but none was able to detect the device.
i guess the issue in my case was only due to corrupt htc drivers and the broken volume key was just giving it a more confusion.
i also tried first repairing of the drivers but that doesnt helped me. then i tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers and that solved out the issue.

Yeah I know about the tool
But inside it does the same way as I'm explaining
Btw the tool perfectly works when you can boot your phone fine and ofcourse it will cause troubles when you can't boot the phone fine
But that's not the case here .. This guy's case is pretty hard here.. He can't boot to bootloader manually and also he is stuck at splash screen (where there is 90% chance that adb won't work).. Luckily he fell in the 10% category

Hi All,
I think I may have bricked my htc sensation, I tried to install JellyBean 4.3 rom as described here. techbeasts.com/2013/11/08/how-to-install-android-4-3-jelly-bean-on-htc-sensation-sensation-xe
Basically, I copied all the files into the sdcard then run fastboot flash boot boot.img after that when did fastboot reboot the bootloader got stuck in loading and when I try to connect using adb i get the device offline message.
I believe with 4.2 or above you have to accept RSA warning or sometime in order to connect using adb tool but I cannot do that as it's stuck on bootloader.
Looks like I've managed to brick the phone as I don't see any way out? just want to confirm that's the case.
This is my first post, please be gentle
I'm now getting this message : error: device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device.
Hi;
There's no adb command while in fasboot mode. Either adb, or fasboot.
When you entered the command to flash the kernel, was it successful? Did it not give any error messages
What iss your firmware? Install the latest official ICS RUU first, then install a recovery, go into recovery and wipe partitions: data, system, and cache. Afterwards, without rebooting, install the 4.3 ROM you want (which I do not suggest) then go back into fastboot mode and flash the 4.3 ROM's kernel. (flash boot boot.img)
Where do you get the last message?
*By the way, for this kind of actions, let XDA be your first consideration to go, I recommend.*
